Day 3: living my life how I want it to be

I had a good journey in - the train was delayed - and so that meant that I spent more time with my lovely partner on the way to work.  I had a lovely walk across the park in the morning. That was nice.  I had a good day at work. I was able to get plenty of things done. I am feeling a bit more positive about things there. It is getting better.  I ate healthily today. That was really good. I had three bananas. Egg sandwiches and some wasabi peas. Lets not mention the two bags of crisps... and the…See More

Having a great time. Over the last few weeks we have moved to the countryside. We are now living in a small village in Kent. We are loving it. It is a great place and some great neighbours too.



The local pub is an old hunting lodge. It is a lovely place. Good beer and great food. We went there last night for a lovely meal.



I am becoming quite the expert when it comes to lighting fires in our wood burning stove. It is lots of fun and very countryside!

Done more packing today. Think we have most of it sorted out. Great news. It is getting close to Friday now when we will move.



Once we have moved I will be going running more. I will be more settled. We have so much stuff around - boxes, rubbish and all kinds just now.



Most of the kitchen stuff is packed away. That means that it is quite difficult to make any food. I am still trying to eat really healthily - though have been enjoying some chocolate today :-) Had KFC - was… Continue

I took my partner to the Toastmasters dinner last night. She enjoyed it. I really enjoyed all the guys meeting her too - particularly after I did my speech about Susie a few weeks ago. Susie had a good time and really enjoyed the speech from Frankie. I really like those guys at Kent Speakers. They are great. Everyone is really good fun, it is a really supportive group, and whats more - people are fabulous speakers!

So, this morning is the day that we exchange, as planned, smoothly, and precisely.

That was a good day for getting things sorted out. I had a number of phone calls with the agents and solicitors. In the end I agreed to pay £400 to the buyers as a contribution to them moving house before Christmas. Was good to get things moving. I am expecting exchange very very early tomorrow morning. After which I will activate the house insurance. I will also be able to confirm with the removals people that they will definitely be able to move us on Friday 18 December. That really would be… Continue

The big news for today is that I achieved a personal best 10 mile running race. It was in Margate in Kent - and the route went along the coast before doubling back. It was wet and wild on the front!

2 December 2009



Went to Toastmasters last night. My role was as general evaluator. Which more or less I can do what I like as long as I get across what was great and what could be improved about the evening. Its a fun role too because it is not possible to prepare in advance, you simply have to find something clever to say and boil down the whole evening.



Had a great chat with some people at the club. That was fun afterwards. We had an interesting discussion about goals… Continue

30 November 2009: Waiting for house contract to exchange

Posted on November 30, 2009 at 5:03pm 0 Comments

I quickly relaxed after this morning when I got in a bit of a flap after I thought I had lost my wallet - it was in my bag. I also missed my train - but there was another one straight after it. It is a reminder that nothing is that much of a problem so not worth getting into a flap about.



A friend of ours has lent us some money so that we can exchange on our house really quickly. I can't wait. It is going to be so great. We will be moving in a week on Friday, and we will start… Continue

the weather here has LOTS of scope to be warmer and drier. We are moving from a 3 storey townhouse to a bungalow in the countryside. Is lovely - and it will be amazing to live in a little village :-) Perfect!

Hi Phil,
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I've moved into my new home, and am loving it. You've just made your move..how is that going?

I'd love to have a big house in the country, and that's what I am going to have when my husband and I settle down to buy a home. Right now, we've just upgraded from a 1 bedroom apt, to a three level townhouse, and we're loving all the space.

I have a massive yard, and that helps for sure! I am so excited for warmer weather so I can plant gardens and herbs :) I just have to get through winter first. And we've been hard hit this year already..lol. What's the weather like where you live?

Take care!
